We returned from Atlanta this past weekend and I thought I’d take a moment to share a bit of the fun we had with you all. After learning that the Chicago Cubs were playing in Atlanta last week we decided that on Hope’s last day of school we’d take a trip to short trip to […]

365. What is it you ask? The number of days in the year, yes, but that’s not all. For those who haven’t already heard, I’d like to introduce our latest challenge. {Insert another one of my crazy ideas here} Yes, you see…I have this crazy idea that I can add more fun to my busy […]

Erin Day -Good to see that you guys are all doing good. I plan on my family coming down your way this summer. It would be great to see you guys. I hope that you all are having a Happy New Year.

The pictures look great. Man, how times flies. You have a beautiful family. (Except for Jason, anyway). You would not believe how big my kids are. They are 17, 16, and 13. Can you believe that? I get to start kicking them out nest year……LOL.

Take care and good luck to you all.

Phyllis -“In starting this little challenge I have been warned and reminded how so many people start and never finish. I’ve heard how many throw in the towel after days, weeks or even months.” Ahem, we ARE talking about you- the woman who appears to never sleep, right? My money’s on you!

btw ~ your photography just keeps getting better and better!

Jenny-oh my word. This is great, i’m not getting another website together, but this is great. U are a superwoman.

For the third year in a row, Hope and I created our family Christmas cards which are now in the mail. Hopefully by now most of you on our mailing list have received them but I wanted to take a moment to share the fun process we went through in the creation of this year’s […]

Anabela do Rosario-The cards are beautiful and so are your kids!! I always enjoy looking at Hope’s artwork. Looks like she’s getting better and better at it every year.
Merry Christmas and blessings to your family!

Eddie-Oh what a fun learning process. I give you till the end of January where you master it. I love version 2 of the cards, the gloves. And that first b&w of the kids is awesome. I hope you and your family have a merry Christmas and hope to see you soon.

Phyllis -I smell an ETSY shop. ;o) Lovely, lovely, lovely…

The ONLY thing that could possibly make it any better is if I were actually on your recipient list. ha! Happy holidays to you all!

Amanda Kern-Thanks guys. Yes, Eddie this is far from my last attempt at screen printing! :o)

And Phyllis…do I really need anything more to add to my to do list? I’ve been told by many that I could sell these…but ah, time…I’d much rather buy some of that. Do they sell that on etsy too? :o)

And of course if I don’t have your address…I’m taking orders for next year…email me your mailing address. :o)

Dennis S -Merry Christmas!

Those cards look so good you should consider starting a line or maybe selling the idea to Hallmark®.

I can’t deny it any longer…my baby is one. The time since Jaylen was born has passed entirely too fast. We continue to feel blessed with the fact that our little guy is doing quite well and has filled our family with more love than we imagined was possible. His birthday was a memorable milestone […]

Joe Saraceno -hi, love your book! I’m wondering if you can help me; I made a book with blurb but didn’t like the templates available in booksmart. If I create my own text and image layouts in photoshop, how do you import them into book form in booksmart?

Thank you,

Joe

Tanya -I can’t believe he is growing up so fast. As I had said a while back in a e-mail it just seemed like yesterday I was holding him as a newborn!. I sure wish I was healthier and in a better condition with the job situation etc that I could have been down there. I sure do miss them. I look at the pictures and hear their giggles and wish I was there. It makes me happy and sad. Hopefully things will turn around fast. Give them both hugs and kisses from me and Ashley and tell them that we love them and wish we could be there. Love you guys!

This past month I was humored to hear Jaylen’s crying compared to a velociraptor. He’s started to become much more vocal and and expressive, which includes his cries. So the next time you watch Jurassic Park you may just think you’re hearing my baby dinosaur crying. Here’s a little video I took of him yesterday […]
